Abstract

With the rapid growth of housing construction and increasing concerns about energy demand in the last decade, the Ministry of Construction released in 1987 a draft energy standard for new residential buildings in cities where central heating is required. The first half of this paper describes the current housing stock in China, its energy consumption, and the engineering methods and economic assumptions used to develop the energy standard. Since the Ministry's energy standard serves only as a general guideline on energy efficiency, as of 1991 most local governments were still in the process of writing detailed rules and regulations conforming to the basic standard. In the second part of the paper, we find that the steady-state calculational method of the Ministry standard agrees well with the results of dynamic DOE-2 building energy simulations, and we use the DOE-2 program to evaluate specific conservation measures proposed in the local Beijing version of the energy standard.
